NoSuchBucket error when running Kubernetes on AWS

Question

I've downloaded Kubernetes 1.1.8.

I got the following error

And got the following error:

kubernetes-1.1.8 > ./kubernetes/cluster/kube-up.sh 
... Starting cluster using provider: aws
... calling verify-prereqs
... calling kube-up
Starting cluster using os distro: vivid
Uploading to Amazon S3
Creating kubernetes-staging-0eaf81fbc51209dd47c13b6d8b424149
make_bucket: s3://kubernetes-staging-0eaf81fbc51209dd47c13b6d8b424149/

A client error (NoSuchBucket) occurred when calling the GetBucketLocation operation: The specified bucket does not exist
+++ Staging server tars to S3 Storage: kubernetes-staging-0eaf81fbc51209dd47c13b6d8b424149/devel
usage: aws [options] <command> <subcommand> [<subcommand> ...] [parameters]
To see help text, you can run:

  aws help
  aws <command> help
  aws <command> <subcommand> help
aws: error: argument --region: expected one argument

AWS Console showed that the bucket was created but was empty.

Answer 1

It's probably a region issue; I'm guessing that the bucket is created in another region than Kubernetes tries to access. Looks like the aws cmdline tool is confused about the region: aws: error: argument --region: expected one argument
